Recording as a profession commenced in tliis country some five years ago, and has developed along very definite lines, but, unfortunately, each Studio has been responsible for its own progress.
For a long time it has been felt that a Society of Studio Engineers and Technicians was needed in order that co-operation with other studios could be obtained.
The engineering profession has always blazed the trail of co-operation, as instanced by the various Institutes of Electrical, Mechanical and Civil Engineers. Members of these institutions can fully appreciate the help and assistance given by this co-operation with other engineers. It has therefore always seemed a great pity that technicians of the Cinema Industry should work in isolated groups.
I do feel that The Association of Cine-Technicians will meet this demand, and through its meetings and publication of this Journal, be the means not only of co-ordinating

ideas, but of developing Studio Engineering along more definite lines, based on an interchange of the practice of the various studios. Such co-operation between technicians will eventually mean, I feel certain, that this country will lead the way in good solid Cinema Engineering technique.
